He goes on to tweet a photo of the fitness model, along with her phone number (stay classy, Jose), then suggests a polygraph to “get the ball rolling.”

“Stay tuned to another day in the life of jose canseco,” he tweeted.

No word yet on how this will affect the 48-year-old’s debut Thursday as a player/coach with the Fort Worth Cats, but he says he’s at the airport on his way to Fort Worth.

Nathan Dwelle, a spokesman for the Cats, says the team isn’t sure yet whether the tweet is legitimate or not. He points out that the original tweet was deleted.

“We’re talking to his agent. We’re trying to figure it out right now,” he said. “He is going to be here, so that’s good.”

There’s no record of a criminal case against Canseco in Clark County posted online, but a spokesperson for the DA’s office there tells BuzzFeed it may not be in the system yet if the charge was just filed.

Canseco, who hit 45 home runs in 193 games for the Rangers from 1992-94, was scheduled to square off against his identical twin, Ozzie, who manages Edinburg. The Cats open the season with four games at LaGrave Field against the Roadrunners.

Cats manager Jim Essian once played with Canseco while with the Oakland Athletics organization.

Canseco, 48, was voted American League MVP in 1988, but he may be best known for his book Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant ‘Roids, Smash Hits, and How Baseball Got Big in which he revealed he used steroids along with former teammates Rafael Palmeiro, Juan Gonzalez and Ivan Rodriguez.
